I don't usually use the Egyptians for the morality argument; but instead use them to refute that the 10 commandments are not original. Since many religious people think that all morals are based on the Bible, and specifically the 10 commandments, I suppose this could in-turn be used in morality arguments.

If you can get a theist to concede that the Egyptians did it first, be sure to push that they they had more core laws; and that their laws were far better universal laws, especially compared to some of the crazy obscure things you can find in the Bible.
